Hi Tom, as you were just saying about Censorship....

I think that we need to punish the abusers of information, not the
producers of it.  If a book tells how to build a bomb and someone does
it, killing other people, the guilty party is the one who abused the
information by building the bomb and using it in an illegal manner.
